Default directional mud tires

I am just wanting to get opinions on direction mud tires... I have had Geolander M/T's before and I like them, but I wanted to get more opinions... mostly for mud in central Texas...

Can't go wrong with the Goodyear Kevlars. I ran a set of them for 3 years. Best tire I ever owned. Although the shop that installed them didn't realize they were directional and mounted them backwards the first time

from my experience from running a tire store it will come down to the pattern like all tire the more open the better it will work in mud but wear quicker on the street etc i have run afew different directional muds and the geolander m/ts are one of the better ones i found, i only used them on a 35" but i sold alot to offroad buggy guys who ran them and loved them. i ran treps in a 35" and had no luck with them here in new zealand as they just held the mud and you went nowhere.
